Oh it's a forklift, that's why.  Seems obvious to not use that, but when you
need to put food on the table...

Absolutely terrible the son and daughter not only have to go through this,
but live the rest of their lives without their father.  It's tough to even
think about it.

That's horrible.  I just sold them a bunch of Trango gear.  While I am in no
way making an attempt to be negative about this tragedy, why are they using
a non-man rated piece of equipment with a "makeshift" man basket roped to
the forklift? (seen here: www.moraminn.com/detail/61845.html)  What's even
worse, is that they were repairing someone else's tower that fell after
having a tree fall on one of the guys...not even their own.

According to another WISP they did a "test run" and everything appeared ok.
 My guess is that the test run was without the man on the lift.  These
things are not made to go left or right, and are not made to handle a side
load.  Unfortunately, we all get to learn a lesson from this on what not to
do.  Thoughts and prayers to the family and the WISP involved.
